Install mpv (Windows)
# scoop is recommended:
scoop install mpv
# Then download libmpv-2.dll separately from https://github.com/shinchiro/mpv-winbuild-cmake/releases
# and place it next to mpv.exe (or anywhere on PATH).Install ytm-player
py -m pip install --user pipx
py -m pipx ensurepath
pipx install ytm-playerLaunch
ytmNotes
- pipx handles PATH automatically and isolates the install — much cleaner than raw pip on Windows.
- Requires libmpv-2.dll alongside mpv.exe — ytm-player auto-searches `~/scoop/apps/mpv/current/`.
